More quotes by Joni Mitchell

Joni Mitchell
I'm a painter first, and a musician second.
Joni Mitchell
I see bodies as individual things.
Joni Mitchell
Once I got the open tunings for some reason, I began to get the harmonic sophistication that I heard that my musical fountain inside was excited by. Once I got some interesting chords to play with, my writing began to come.
Joni Mitchell
I certainly don't want to be an angry old artist.
Joni Mitchell
I never loved a man as far as I could pitch my shoe.
Joni Mitchell
Musically, I don't think I'd ever dry up. I trust my musical invention.
Joni Mitchell
Because Elvis gave 'em cars, you think I'm cheap.
Joni Mitchell
At the point where I'm trying to force something and it's not happening, and I'm getting frustrated with, say, writing a poem, I can go and pick up the brushes and start painting. At the point where the painting seems to not be going anywhere, I go and pick up the guitar.
Joni Mitchell

Joni Mitchell
You win the lasting laurels with your laughter.
Joni Mitchell
You snipe so steady, you snub so snide, so rip and ready to diminish and deride.
Joni Mitchell
But now old friends are acting strange They shake their heads, they say I've changed Well something's lost, but something's gained In living every day
Joni Mitchell
A little lawyer on the tube, he said, its so easy now, anyone can sue.
Joni Mitchell
An unhappy mother does not raise a happy child.
Joni Mitchell
I see the entire world as Eden, and every time you take an inch of it away, you must do so with respect.
Joni Mitchell
I wish I had a river I could skate away on?
Joni Mitchell
They took all the trees and put them in a tree museum.
Joni Mitchell
